>Release:        FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE-p3
>Organization:
>Environment:
>Description:
When starting xombrero using the wrapper script located at /usr/local/bin/xombrero the configuration-file gets overwritten each time with a default one.
>How-To-Repeat:
execute xombrero using the wrapper script
>Fix:
Wrapper script is a bourne shell script.

There are several callings of "test" to check if several files exist in the user's home directory with pathes in quotes like "~/.xombrero.conf". In my environment the ~ doesn't expand to my home dir when in quotes. When using the test-call without quotes, script works as it should.
